Prompt 003
Pairing (if any) Mr Universe
N/B I was flicking though the Sky Channels so many channels and nothing on and on one of them talked about men and there dolls whom they treated as girlfriends.

He stared up into the empty eyes of the ‘woman’ he married, he felt at home in these arms, Lenore . There was no blood pumping through them, there was no heartbeat beneath her breast but she never made him feel like a freak. She accepted him for what and who he was.

There had only been one other woman he had loved, she was flesh and blood but she was also married to his friend, Wash.

He could feel himself dying, slowly. He hoped Mal would find the message if anyone could it would be him. A smile graced his lips as he struggled with his last breath. He was Mr Universe, he couldn’t die.

“You can’t stop the signal Mal.” Mr Universe repeated those words softly to himself.

He took one last look into his lovely bride’s eyes; at least he wasn’t alone.

Signal Terminated.
